They have like 1200 HP when FU together with 60damage/2 Splash. Then, why is the army that good? Okay, Gendarmes. That together with the fact that the French can get ALL the european Mill/Plantation-upgrades + Economic Theory.
Age of empires 3 best civ free#
So do any civs have any special cards or techs that make them better than other civs in the late game? Like, could you say why France has a "nice econ"? I know that CdBs are better than settlers but you can't have as many, right? So it evens out?Yes, it actually does even out with an exception that they will have additional 20 free pop for army while their eco is just a strong as a 100 pop one. And what's the point of being awesome in age V if the game's over in age II? The trouble is, these cards come at the expense of troops, villies and resources, so your speed can suffer.
Age of empires 3 best civ upgrade#
IMO, any european civ can get horrifying in lategame if you pack your deck with refrigeration, royal mint, 2 factories and economic theory, plus any of your troop upgrade cards.

Be sure to follow them with some cannons to shred any counterinfantry the enemy thinks to point their way. Then, just when you think they're crazy enough, send Zweihander. They eat cavaly for breakfast and chew through towns at a ridiculous rate. Thanks to Tilly's Discipline, they are nearly as fast as cavalry, hit like Cuirassers, and only take up hussar population. German: With 3 melee combat cards, imperial dopplesoldners are in a class by themselves. Nothing will survive the overlapping fire of your skirmishers, ruyters and cannon. Add the terrifying power of their cav, and fully upgraded imperial skirmishers, and 25% harder hitting cannons, the list goes on and on.ĭutch: With banks acting as invisible villagers, the dutch have awesome econ and TONS of free population to field massive armies of gunpowder armed death.

French: Highly pop-effective CDBs fuel a powerhouse late economy, and the ability to field three (!) forts plus 3 TCs makes for a great deal of map control.
